Order STD TestingSTD testing refers to a group of laboratory methods used to detect infections that are commonly transmitted through sexual contact. Because different infections require different detection techniques, a single test cannot screen for every organism. Understanding what a panel measures, how specimens are collected, and when results become available helps patients and clinicians interpret findings accurately.
About STD Testing in New York
STD testing encompasses a range of assays, each designed to identify a specific bacterium, virus, or parasite from an appropriate specimen.
Panels vary by organism and method. Common targets include Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Trichomonas vaginalis, Treponema pallidum, HIV, and hepatitis B and C. Nucleic acid amplification tests detect genetic material and are widely used for chlamydia, gonorrhea, and trichomoniasis. Blood-based serology identifies antibodies or antigens for syphilis, HIV, and viral hepatitis.
Specimen collection depends on the infection under investigation. Urine and swab samples from the genital tract are typical for bacterial infections, while blood draws are standard for viral and syphilis testing. Some collection methods are non-invasive; others require a brief clinical procedure. Following the laboratory's collection instructions helps ensure the sample is adequate for analysis.
Turnaround time is usually one to three business days, though it can differ by the specific assay and the laboratory performing it. Certain tests, such as cultures or confirmatory assays, may require additional time. Results are reported to the ordering provider, who interprets them in the context of symptoms, exposure history, and the need for follow-up or repeat testing.
